Great image quality, improved function button customisation
Occasional misfocusing, slow start up, poorly placed movie button, unfriendly menu system, larger lenses than most CSC competitors
Sony's not flinching against the flurry of new Compact System Cameras hitting the market. With smaller-sensor, smaller designs making up the majority of the competition, the NEX-5N's impressive image quality can happily boast to have among the best ima...
Large APS-C sensor, Includes removable flash, Touch screen interface with customizable control buttons, 1080p video recording, Optional eye-level OLED viewfinder available,
Can't beat the NEX-C3 in low-light performance, Slightly larger than NEX-C3, Kit lens is larger than Micro Four Thirds equivalent,
The Sony Alpha NEX-5N delivers a lot of performance from its compact body, packing a sensor as large as those found in most digital SLRs and recording video in full 1080p HD. But it doesn't quite edge out its little brother, the NEX-C3, our Editors' C...
The Sony NEX-5N is an solid performer top-to-bottom in spite of the audio defect during video capture. If you are looking for primarily a still camera, the NEX-5N is an excellent choice. As noted above though, if you are looking at the NEX-5N as a vi...

A small-bodied interchangeable-lens model with excellent video, the Sony Alpha NEX-5N also offers some nice features, including a tilting LCD, EVF port, and a hybrid touch-screen/traditional interface
The user interface won't be to everyone's taste, and the body feels almost too small for the typical E-mount zoom lenses
An especially good option for people who want a relatively inexpensive ILC for shooting video, the Sony Alpha NEX-5N's photo quality's about the same as its cheaper sibling's.
Abstract: 16.10MegapixelsSony E-mount3.0 inchLCDReview Summary: Sony's thin and light NEX-5N has the same basic form as its predecessor, but sports a new 16.1-megapixel sensor that's capable of capturing up to 10 frames per second and Full HD video at 60p. A new...
The NEX-5N is a significant update to the NEX-5 in terms of both usability as well as customizability. The added connectivity with the new optional OLED EVF accessory should help to make this camera more appealing to enthusiast users who prefer shooti...
The review camera had obviously 'been round the block a couple of times ' before it landed on Photo Review's desk. The supplied lens showed some dents on the ribbing of the zoom ring; the front element of the lens was fingermarked and there was dust in th...
